Hi Dan,
The (probably original) wishbone booms on my daughter's '78 F40 CC were made of three pieces, bolted together. The two long sides were laminated Douglas Fir, with the front bows being laminated White Oak. They were heavy and had some rot starting at some of the joints when we gave them away.
